Long-term Follow-up of Subjects Treated With CAR T Cells

This is a single site, non-randomized, open-label, long-term safety and efficacy follow-up study for Phase 1 studies that evaluate the safety and efficacy of CAR T cells: NCT05660369 (DF/HCC# 22-175) and NCT06026319 (DF/HCC# 23-474).

About this study

This is a long-term safety and efficacy follow-up study for subjects who have been treated with CAR T cells in corresponding Phase I main studies that evaluated the safety and efficacy of CAR T cells in subjects.

No investigational treatment will be administered in this study.

The FDA (2020) recommends long-term follow up for subjects treated with gene therapy drug products to monitor for delayed adverse events (AEs), as well as durability of clinical response.

Therefore, after monitoring of subjects in the main studies has been completed (24 months after CAR T cells infusion, or <24 months after CAR T cells infusion if subject terminated early due to disease progression or due to discontinuing corresponding main study for any reason), subjects will be asked to participate in a long-term follow-up study (LTFU).

Subjects will be followed for up to 15 years following their last CAR T cells infusion in the corresponding main study.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

Subjects will be asked to participate leading up to the last DF/HCC corresponding main study visit.

Subjects meeting the following criteria are eligible for study participation:

  • Provision of voluntary written informed consent by subject
  • CAR T cells were administered in DF/HCC IRB corresponding main study

Exclusion criteria

Subjects meeting the following criterion are to be excluded from study participation:

  • Subject unable to comply with study requirements

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall Survival

    Time frame: 1 month

    defined as the time from randomization (or registration) to death due to any cause, or censored at date last known alive

  2. Overall Survival

    Time frame: 6 months

    defined as the time from randomization (or registration) to death due to any cause, or censored at date last known alive

  3. Overall Survival

    Time frame: 12 months

    defined as the time from randomization (or registration) to death due to any cause, or censored at date last known alive

  4. Overall Survival

    Time frame: 24 months

    defined as the time from randomization (or registration) to death due to any cause, or censored at date last known alive

  5. Progresison Free Survival

    Time frame: 1 month

    PFS is defined as the number of days from the day of CAR T cells treatment to the first documented disease progression or date of death, whichever occurs first. Patients who are lost to follow up without a known date of progression or death due to any cause will be censored in the analysis at the date of their last available tumor assessment.

  6. Progresison Free Survival

    Time frame: 6 months

    PFS is defined as the number of days from the day of CAR T cells treatment to the first documented disease progression or date of death, whichever occurs first. Patients who are lost to follow up without a known date of progression or death due to any cause will be censored in the analysis at the date of their last available tumor assessment.

  7. Progresison Free Survival

    Time frame: 12 months

    PFS is defined as the number of days from the day of CAR T cells treatment to the first documented disease progression or date of death, whichever occurs first. Patients who are lost to follow up without a known date of progression or death due to any cause will be censored in the analysis at the date of their last available tumor assessment.

  8. Progresison Free Survival

    Time frame: 24 months

    PFS is defined as the number of days from the day of CAR T cells treatment to the first documented disease progression or date of death, whichever occurs first. Patients who are lost to follow up without a known date of progression or death due to any cause will be censored in the analysis at the date of their last available tumor assessment.

  9. New incidence or exacerbation of a pre-existing neurologic disorder or prior rheumatologic or other autoimmune disorder

    Time frame: Up to 15 Years

    An annual physical exam will be conducted for surveillance of manifestations indicative of oncoretroviral diseases.

  10. New incidence of a hematologic disorder

    Time frame: up to 15 years

    An annual physical exam will be conducted for surveillance of manifestations indicative of oncoretroviral diseases.

  11. Number of Participants with Treatment-Related Adverse Events as Assessed by CTCAE v 5.0

    Time frame: up to 15 years

    NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE)

  12. Vector-derived RCL

    Time frame: baseline and in 3 months, 6 months, and annually up to 15 years

    Archiving of samples for potential detection of vector-derived RCL. RCL testing will be monitored at the central RCL lab (Indiana University) by a suitable qPCR assay for detection of the lentiviral vector (VSV-g DNA).

  13. Assessment of CAR T cells persistence by VCN in peripheral blood

    Time frame: baseline and in 3 months, 6 months, every 6 months up to 5 years, and annually up to 15 years

    VCN will be performed in DNA from whole blood to monitor for persistence of vector sequence

  14. Progression-free Survival

    Time frame: From post-CAR T cells infusion date until date of first documented disease progression or date of death from any cause, assessed up to 15 years post treatment

    The number of days from the day of CAR T cells treatment to the first documented disease progression or date of death, whichever occurs first. Patients who are lost to follow up without a known date of progression or death due to any cause will be censored in the analysis at the date of their last available tumor assessment.

  15. Overall Survival

    Time frame: From post-CAR T cells infusion date until documented date of death from any cause, assessed post treatment every 6 months through 5 years and then annually up to 15 years

    The time from post-CAR T cells infusion to the date of death.
